What a pleasant surprise to find this on lemmy! Excellent write up as always.

If the tutorial makes you buy things, it’s obviously expecting you to pay to win 🤷

Im back to Balatro after losing all interest in it. Just got a couple more decks to unlock until I can decide I’ve completed it. I obviously never will (get gold tokens on all the jokers? Lolno) but it will feel like a good point to stop with no regrets.

I got that Blue Prince bug where your data secretly stops saving twice now. I read it’s been fixed but playing the game has a tension behind it now that’s discouraging me from investing too much in it, psychologically speaking, and also I’m hesitant to play anything else on the PlayStation because closing the Blue Prince application on it risks being hit by the bug again if it does still exist.

Which all seems like the universe telling me it’s time to try Baldur’s Gate 3 Honour Mode again with these new subclasses. I’ve made a dragonborn barbarian, planning for him to be a giant that specializes in punching, playing him arrogant and naive. Lae’zel and Wyll feel like good companions for that temperament but I don’t know who my third should be. Maybe stick with a hireling until I get one of the druids? He’s too insecure to tolerate Shadowheart or Gale. Astarion or Karlach would mean having to reclass somebody so there’d be a support role on the team and reclassing the origins never sits well with me.

UPDATE: Things did not go well at the goblin camp.

Ive been playing some VRising after a friend wanted to replay it.
Then i brought my brother into it (he plays singleplayer) and needed to hold back myself with suggestions because he was simply happy with slaying some skeletons in the tutorial area

Killing floor 1/2, fps zombie horde killing.

Another doot for Remnant, really enjoyed the odd universe and two player coop.

Battlefront 2 multi player for mindless star wars pew pew fun.

thermal_shock,

You recommended killing floor before L4D2? Interesting.

@dumblederp@aussie.zone avatar

Hasn’t someone already suggested L4D2? I only played the first and was pretty offended when they promptly released the second and expected me to pay for it. They did eventually turn around and give it away but IIRC it was under a year from release and they expected me to buy a whole other game.

unit327,

I was a bit cheesed too, but it’s been umpteen billion years since then and you can grab l4d2 for about $2. It’s time to let go.

Katana314, do gaming w That fucking helicopter level

I was playing Mafia, and it’s a pretty cool game, then suddenly they drop in an F1 racing level where you need to grab first place against a bunch of AIs that never make a mistake.

The worst bit is, in the previous mission you did a lot of work to sabotage the rival’s car ahead of the race. So you shouldn’t even need to drive all that well to win against him, but it just forgets that.

I just never beat the race, so the game came to a halt for me.

HK65,

shouldn’t even need to drive all that well to win against him, but it just forgets that.

His car breaks down right at the start, which ironically makes the mission harder as you have to dodge the car as everyone passes it.

That said, the hard part was not tipping over, you could get quite a few places by just not giving a shit and flying over the chicane after the first turn.

grrgyle,

That’s like game design 101 – if you’re introducing a new gameplay paradigm that isn’t part of the core experience, make it really really easy.

Maybe I’m misremembering, but I recall the Warthog escape sequence at the end of Halo getting this right. It felt epic, but was actually very doable based on the limited driving skills required by rest of the game.

pinball_wizard,

That’s why many of us are so fond of the warthog. Many games at the time introduced a vehicle and suddenly the game is ludicrously hard (… That fucking BattleToad battle bike…). But the Warthog is introduced as a helpful aid, and then it actually does it’s job with minimal fuss.

Oh that’s so kind of you to say!! Thank you, I’m so glad you enjoyed it!

_hovi_, do games w What are some good cooperative shooters? Hidden gems?

Darktide is fire, it’s a left 4 dead style game (horde shooter?). If you want 2d shooters, I really enjoyed Broforce and Huntdown (that one’s a real gem)

nivenkos, do games w What are some good cooperative shooters? Hidden gems?

Rainbow Six Vegas and Splinter Cell Blacklist and Chaos Theory were awesome for this - especially for 2 people.

If you have 4 then SWAT 4, Ready Or Not, Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, ARMA 3.

k0e3, do gaming w That fucking helicopter level

Maybe I’m an idiot, but I can’t get the stupid mini game in Astral Chain where I have to balance a bunch of boxes and take them to someone without dropping them all. It adds nothing to the story afaik and it pissed me off to a point I just stopped playing altogether.

vrighter, do gaming w That fucking helicopter level

“that fucking helicopter level”, for me, refers to the rc heli missions in gta vice city

FrowingFostek,

Same! I even played it on multiple platforms, no good

BradleyUffner,

Man, fuck those levels. I literally could not progress in the game because I was stuck on one of those. That experience lowered my opinion of the entire game, and I’ve never gone back because of it.

At the core of the custom sex doll experience is the concept of control and creativity. Unlike traditional relationships or casual encounters, custom tifa sexdolls allow for complete personalization. Buyers can choose every aspect of the doll's appearance, from skin tone and eye color to body shape, hairstyle, facial features, and even finer details such as freckles or tattoos. This level of customization ensures that the doll matches the user's ideal image of beauty and attraction, offering a level of satisfaction that generic mass-produced dolls or virtual simulations cannot achieve. The ability to create a TPE sex doll that mirrors one’s fantasies, no matter how specific or unconventional, plays a powerful role in enhancing both physical pleasure and emotional connection.
